Once You Use This on a Plane, You'll Never Fly Without It Again
If you travel often, you probably already know the struggle: You're settled into your seat, ready to dive into the in-flight entertainment, only to realize your AirPods won't connect to the screen. The airline's wired headphones? Practically useless. They're uncomfortable, have no noise cancellation and let in every engine roar and crying baby within a three-row radius. For long flights, it's a recipe for a frustrating, low-quality listening experience. That's exactly why the AirFly Pro has become a must-pack item in my travel bag. It's a simple Bluetooth dongle that lets you connect your wireless earbuds (like my AirPods Pro) directly to the airplane's entertainment system, no adapters or wired workarounds required. Since I started using it, I've stopped dreading in-flight audio and finally get to enjoy movies the way they were meant to be heard. If you fly often, this little gadget might completely change how you travel. The AirFly Pro lets me truly enjoy in-flight entertainment The AirFly Pro from Twelve South is a minimally designed dongle that lets me connect to the 3.5mm headphone jack on my flight to listen to in-flight entertainment on my noise-cancelling earbuds. All I have to do is pair the AirFly Pro with whichever Bluetooth headphones I'm using, like my AirPods Pro, plug the AirFly Pro into the display in front of me -- and I'm all set. I don't even need to use my phone to connect the two devices. Geoffrey Morrison/CNET There are four versions of the AirFly: the AirFly SE, which costs $35 on Amazon and connects to just one set of headphones; the AirFly Pro ($55); the Pro V2 ($60), the newest version of the Pro; and the Pro Deluxe ($62), which comes with an international headphone adapter and a suede travel case. I use the AirFly Pro, and it's been a game changer for me on flights. I've never had to worry about battery life -- the AirFly Pro lasts for more than 25 hours and can fully charge in 3 hours. I can also pair two separate pairs of headphones to a single AirFly Pro, in case I'm with someone else on a flight and want to watch the same movie or show. And if that's not enough, the AirFly Pro also doubles as an audio transmitter, so I can turn any speaker with a headphone jack, like my old car stereo, into a Bluetooth speaker. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Geoffrey Morrison/CNET The AirFly Pro makes a great gift With Father's Day right around the corner, you might be shopping for the father figure in your life. The AirFly Pro is the perfect present to give to someone who's planning to travel this year. Besides my Anker MagSafe battery pack, the AirFly Pro really has become my most treasured travel accessory when I fly, which is why I consider it to be one of those can't-go-wrong gifts.

United Has a New Nonstop Daily That Makes It Easier to Visit the 'Sunniest Island' in Croatia
There are places where time seems to stretch out like a sun-drenched afternoon, where the clamor of modern life softens to the murmur of waves and the clink of glasses under vine-shaded pergolas. Hvar, a slender Croatian island adrift in the Adriatic, is one such place. Long favored by yachters and sunseekers, Hvar is known for being Croatia's sunniest island, particularly during the summer months of June, July, and August. The island—and the whole of Croatia—just got twice as easy to visit thanks to new daily flights that connect Newark, New Jersey (EWR) and Dubrovnik (DBV). The expanded route, operated by United Airlines, builds off of a seasonal service that previously ran between the two cities four times weekly. Now, Americans can travel directly to Croatia daily on a nine-hour nonstop red-eye flight that arrives in Dubrovnik the next morning. The expanded nonstop service started in early May 2025 and ends in late August 2025, reflecting 'a more than doubling of available seats,' for the summer, according to a November 2024 press release shared by Dubrovnik Airport. The Newark to Dubrovnik flight is currently the only nonstop flight connecting the U.S. and Croatia. The overnight flight lands in Dubrovnik just after 10 a.m. local time, allowing U.S. travelers time to explore the coastal city before heading to the island of Hvar. Dubrovnik, which sits on the Adriatic Sea, is known for its charming Old Town and surrounding 16th-century stone walls. From Dubrovnik, getting to Hvar is as easy as hopping on a ferry that runs between the two destinations four times daily during the peak season. The ferry ride takes just over three hours. Upon arrival into the ferry port in Hvar Town, the island's main hub, travelers will be welcomed by sun-drenched marble streets and Renaissance architecture. Further afield are hillsides covered with lavender and tiny stone villages tucked among olive groves. The seasonal flight also serves as an entry point to other islands: many travelers take ferries to the Pakleni Islands, which are just off the southwest coast of Hvar and renowned for their secluded beaches and rocky coves.
